We are dedicating our blog each Friday of this month to one of our favorite events of the year, Abundance NC’s Pepper Festival. Thanks to our client, Briar Chapel, for hosting this important community event and involving us in it for the past several years. On October 2, together with the teams at Abundance NC and Briar Chapel (and 2,000 or so of our closest friends), we celebrated the 9th annual Pepper Festival.

This photo features Sam Ratto from Videri Chocolate Factory with my son, Jackson. Sam is another Clairemont client who brought his culinary expertise to the Pepper Festival to serve as one of our judges.
